Perfect Partner: 8 Couples with impeccable style
They marked their times with a perfect sense of style. Here's why these couples deserve to be with each other.
Singers, movie stars, sovereign princes - they make us dream and inspire in more ways than one. And for some, when their coupled up, their influence becomes all the more stronger, at least in the department of style. Here are 8 couples who have reigned supreme when it came to having an impeccable sartorial sense.
Serge Gainsbourg & Jane Birkin
He is a creative and musical genius while she, flew across the Channel, landed in France and found the charming Gainsbourg on a film set.
Now after 12 years of living together, one child and a unique style, the two never fail to inspire our wardrobes. Between a flawless 3-piece suit (almost), a cigarette in his mouth and Jane with her mini dresses and petite size, the two of them marked the end of the 60s with their look and their envious lifestyle.
Orlando Bloom & Miranda Kerr
We love them despite their status as Hollywood stars as they managed to remain as normal as a couple as possible. On the red carpet or in everyday life, they never played it too hard but retained a primarily casual style.
Since their separation, the Australian doll and beautiful brown lead more serene ways, living in front of one another for the welfare of their little Flynn.
Johnny Depp & Kate Moss
Sex, drugs and rock 'n' roll, these two definitely have marked their generation! In the middle 90s, when his career exploded, the very young English girl met the bad bot and the chemistry was insane.
She became the face of several Calvin Klein campaigns and he was the idol of a punk rock generation. Despite leaving us in tears since their separation, they nonetheless remain the most iconic grunge couple around.
Mick Jagger & Jerry Hall
In 1977, the young Texan supermodel was then engaged to singer Bryan Ferry. At a dinner meeting she meets the leader of the most media-rock band of the moment: The Rolling Stones.
True to Studio 54, the couple displayed their flashy style and offbeat attitude between rock and glitter.
David & Victoria Beckham
Between Posh Spice of the Spice Girls group and the English footballer, style was far from obvious and yet they turned out to be icons. Since their meeting in 1997, Beckhams became one of the most stylish couples of the moment. In 2013, with the launch of her eponymous label, Victoria also becomes one of the most powerful women in the world.
Humphrey Bogart & Lauren Bacall
May 1945, Humphrey passes the ring to his mistress. Despite their 25 years difference, they became one of the stars of Hollywood cinema. The style of that which is called The Look (because of the way she looked in the Port of Anguish) is inimitable. Silk blouses, pencil skirts, jackets - these shouldered the epitome of fashion style of the 50s.
Johnny Depp & Vanessa Paradis
Almost like Siamese twins on red carpets, Depp-Paradis have marked recent decades in their freedom to appropriate and have fun with fashion; and that's it!
Loved by Mr Karl Lagerfeld, Vanessa scrolls the finest haute couture models at prestigious events. They now transmit their brilliant taste to their 16 year-old daughter, Lily-Rose, who became the first spokesmodel for Chanel.
Prince Rainier & Grace Kelly
A true fairy tale. The union between the Prince of Monaco and Hollywood star was called the "wedding of the century" and was followed live by more than 3 million viewers. More than 30 years after the tragic death of the latter in the hills above Monaco, the myth remains intact. Of style, elegance and protocol, the couple will have marked their era.
